the souped up one is still for sale as far as i know. two people drove serious distances last weekend to see it, but neither went away with it... that makes me wonder.
i've offered twice to go look at it. i don't know anything about Z's but i if you have a laundry list i can try to ask the right questions.
by all means, go take it for a spin  what to look for? i suppose the engine not being on its last legs, rust... nothing special really.

it could just be the economic climate that cars arent selling. especially 37 year old boutique enthusiast type cars

nope. 500lbs heavier, less power.
240 -> 260 -> 280
Power: 150/148 -> 139/137 -> 149/163.
Weight: 2355 -> 2605 -> 2875
240 or bust.

fuel injection is nice, and you can strip out most of the extra weight in the 280 pretty easily.
240 is still better but I wouldnt kick a 280 out of bed.
280z is a little more portly, but the frame is also much more substantial. If you're tracking an S30 z, it's pretty much a moot point b/c the 240 would theoretically need more metal to make it as stiff as the 280 in same form. 280s are also much more common, newer (less rust in theory) and not as highly desired so easier to negotiate on price.
